Evolutionary divergence of the reptilian and the mammalian brains: considerations on connectivity and development.
The isocortex is a distinctive feature of the mammalian brain, with no clear counterpart in other amniotes. There have been long controversies regarding possible homologues of this structure in reptiles and birds. The brains of the latter are characterized by the presence of a structure termed dorsa...
